Golden State at Denver

Game of the Month - Denver gave it all it had and still came up on the short end in Game 3, and now the Nuggets face the impossible task of overcoming a 3-0 deficit in the series. Golden State shot 55.4%, and that was too much to overcome, even though the Nuggets shot 50% themselves, which will be hard to duplicate. Denver has lost seven straight playoff games, and it is 2-7 ATS in its last nine games overall. Stephen Curry and Jordan Poole led the Warriors with 27 points each, and Klay Thompson added 26 as the Warriors jumped out to a 69-59 halftime lead. Golden State has won eight in a row and is 8-1 ATS in its last nine games as they're getting most everyone back after suffering some injuries. The Warriors have covered the spread in the last five meetings, and they are 32-12 ATS in their last 44 conference quarterfinal games. Back the Warriors for my NBA Playoffs Round 1 Game of the Month.
